Can I upload videos to my ArtBinder?

Playing videos directly from ArtBinder is in the objects, but not yet a feature. In the meantime, we do have a sleek solution that requires hosting the videos on a website - Vimeo, Dropbox, etc. Once you have an objecting link to the videos, then you can embed the video link in a PDF. When you click the PDF in ArtBinder, the link will open within ArtBinder and you can view the video. You can use a video still as the image and upload the PDF with the embedded link as the additional info PDF. Below is a breakdown of the steps.

Steps to Hyperlink a PDF:

Create a PDF document

Open the PDF in Adobe Acrobat (Note: Adobe Acrobat is required. Adobe Reader does not have this functionality)

Select Edit PDF

Select Link > Add/Edit Web or Document Link

Choose the area you want hyperlinked

Link Action > Open a web page

Enter the video’s URL

Click the PDF and check to make sure the link objects

Save the file
